Okay, so a lot of reviewers both on the site and others have pointed out that Yoko ruined this album. I only partly agree, I think the message from John and Yoko was that hatred and tyranny are as old as time and during the late 60s hatred was alive and well. The hatred of anything different, different societies, different governments. I think John and Yoko were testing the audience to see just how peaceful they really were. Would an audience that was just singing give peace a chance suddenly become violent after listening to Yoko's crazy vocals? the idea that you have to except some things regardless of how hard they are to accept is the only way to achieve peace. I think that was the message here. And although, I do agree it puts a damper on an amazing recording, this was an amazing time and John would go to amazing lengths to spread his message. whether it be staying in bed for weeks on end, saying that he was bigger than god, or having Yoko shriek into the microphone for 20 minutes. You have to wonder, didn't they realize that people would react. My guess is that was the experiment. For that reason is a historical album that all rock fans should own.Read full review
I’ve always loved this album. Just the basics but performed by true legends. Little pricey for the Mobile Labs edition but just listening to Blue Suede Shoes makes it worth it for me. This kind of thing NEVER gets old or routine.

The quality of the CD is great and so is the music. Yoko Ono's screaming voice, not so much.

This sounds great! It beats the standard issue CD cold. It is the 1990's remix version though and not the original mix heard on the 1969 LP.
